Highlights of Maslak
Maslak lies north of Levent, within the Sarıyer district, and is a modern business and technology zone. Istanbul Technical University's Ayazağa campus, glass-fronted office towers, car dealerships and new residential projects make up its skyline. It is a functional business hub rather than a sightseeing area, so guests are typically here for meetings at corporate headquarters or multi-day training and conference programmes. Its big advantages are relative proximity to Istanbul Airport and a direct connection to the TEM motorway, with the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge only minutes away. The Büyükdere Caddesi corridor and the Maslak interchange get badly jammed at commuting times. Most towers have underground car parks or covered entrances, which keeps drop-offs comfortable even in the rain. In the evenings and at weekends the area becomes very quiet.
